Help with my setup, can't figure this out

Ok, I have no idea what is going on. I hit a 152.2 with the D3 on my mic before I left home, I go to the show and hit a 151.5 but that wasn't that shocking to me because my mic is higher then the certified one. So then we do a little amp comparison, hook up some new amps and burp it once, then we burped a few more times and always were 1 or more db down from the first hit. I thought perhaps I dropped a coil, but now I don't think that because I measured my coils on my woofers and its a bit weird, both are labelled dual 1ohm but the one sub both coils read 0.9 and the other sub both coils read 1.8 I have to assume though that the woofer have always been like that because its not like there is only one coil out of 4, one woofer just reads much differant than the other does but I am not sure if I ever tried to measure them in the past or not. Anyway so I hook my gear back up in my car and burp at home again, this time it does 151.5 on my mic, which is 0.7db less than it was doing when I left home...I have no idea what is wrong, I took both subs out and both look totally fine and are moving fine does anyone have any ideas?
